Refreshers
Emília Pérez
actor ousted as a chudette
called out fentanyl Floyd and Muzzies
I will genuinely never understand what these people see in Emilia Perez, it's shocking how many awards it's winning
Hollywood wants to pat itself on the back for making a movie about a transgender character.
I can find 100s of comments on reddit alone praising the movie before the CHUD reveal
Voting closed prior to the recent drama surrounding Emilia Pérez, so that's something to consider. However, the movie is a piece of trash to begin with and the director is a turd bag to boot
It's so bad. I had unfortunately heard the complaints before I went to watch it, but went in with an open mind. The thing that makes me the angriest is that by all surface metrics I should like a film like this. I have a number of close friends who are trans and who I've been close to during their various transitions. Been a person who was there for them as they dealt with their families falling apart. I'm straight and cis but this is near and dear to me.
But the film is just terrible. I couldn't find any empathy for the characters. Maybe it's the flat acting by some normally amazing people. There's no character building. The songs are also flat, both in expressiveness and tonality. I speak pretty decent Spanish so it wasn't a language barrier. I knew what they were saying for 90% of it and had subtitles for the rest. The melodies, if you can call them that, seem low effort. The lyrics in a few of the songs had me laughing at how inane they were, and I'm not talking about the Thai s*x clinic song that everyone rightfully ridicules. Musicals are known for silly songs but that's on purpose. This is trying to take itself seriously. The cinematography is questionable. I was amazed to see it was nominated for that. It's just uncreative and again, flat. Boring. Not groundbreaking. Not even mildly interesting.
And even with all of that, it could still be salvageable. But you have an old French cis dude writing in Spanish about Mexican trans people?! And then directing it? What is this insanity? I could go on but it's a kick in the face that I (and many others including many in the LGBT+ community) now get to be the buttholes who are saying this apparent masterpiece doesn't deserve any of these nominations. So yeah frick the Academy for their gratuitous self congratulatory bullshit. These are some of the same people who think Roman Polanski did nothing wrong. Frick em.
Emilia still won a lot is interesting. Either votes have been locked for months now or the Hollywood inner circle dont care for the discourse. Wonder how Oscar will do though
I guess the Oscar Jannies LOCKED the thread
Whatever this guy is smoking I will NOT have it
I'm not a fan of the film either, but we just can't ignore that apparently a lot of people see quality in this film and it extends outside the Academy. It's a polarizing movie, with great disparity in the Rotten tomatoes score (72% vs 17% lol) and even though I feel like it's a weird mess, a lot of people find something greatly enjoyable about the film.
For instance, at the Toronto International Film Festival. It has around 480.000 attendees. Regular movie goers. They're not millionaires or Academy members. Of all the films on the program they can vote for the ones they love the most, the People's Choice Award, they voted for Emilia Perez. And it got the runner-up prize there.
The Cannes jury (listed below) awarded it as well, even consisting of J.A. Bayona who speaks Spanish.
- Greta Gerwig, American actress and filmmaker – Jury President
- J. A. Bayona, Spanish filmmaker
- Ebru Ceylan, Turkish actress and screenwriter
- Pierfrancesco Favino, Italian actor and producer
- Lily Gladstone, American actress
- Eva Green, French actress
- Hirokazu Kore-eda, Japanese filmmaker and producer
- Nadine Labaki, Lebanese actress and filmmaker
- Omar Sy, French actor
People keep mentioning the 13 Oscar nominations. Well, it got 15(!) BAFTA nominations. The British Academy consists of over 13000 people.
Denis Villeneuve called it one of the best movies of the year.
"I really loved Jacques Audiard's Emilia Perez. I thought that it was very original and inspiring. Jacques Audiard's movies always give me a boost of energy, he's one of our best filmmakers."
James Cameron loved it.
"What I saw that blew me away was Emilia Pérez. I have seen it three times now. It's just not like any other film that's ever been made, you know? I mean, I think it's bold, it's daring, it's a vision. It's beautifully executed. It's a beautiful piece of filmmaking."
'I Have Seen It 3 Times': James Cameron Gives High Praise to Controversial Netflix Hit
I am equally baffled by it. I can understand some of the praise of it. I gave it a 5/10, but it's nowhere near my top spots in any categories, but we can't just stick to the Reddit sphere and ignore that there is incredible passion for the film.
really neighbor, only now you say this? because of the CHUDening ?
Its winning of Best Foreign Language Film is such an irony when the film has been widely panned for stereotyping Mexico, its actors' poor accents, the inaccurate contexts of its dialogues, and made by a director who doesnt speak the language and apparently said Spanish is a language of poor countries (paraphrased) in an interview.
!kino !chuds if anything Hollywood should start casting redditors
because they are so good at acting as if this is was their opinion all along

According to data from USASpending.gov, the U.S. government has granted over $270 million to the East-West Management Institute (EWMI) over the past 15 years. EWMI is an organization partnered with George Soros' Open Society Foundations. Additionally, another $90 million was obligated to the institution over several contracts. The East-West Management Institute describes its mission as "strengthening democratic societies by fostering collaboration between governments, civil society, and the private sector to build transparent and accountable institutions." Its funding primarily comes from USAID and the U.S. Department of State. Programs include judicial reform, legal aid, and rule of law initiatives in countries like Albania, Armenia, Cambodia, and Georgia, as well as civil society training in nations such as Kyrgyzstan and Uganda.It's important to note that while EWMI has received substantial funding from USAID, this funding is directed towards the organization's initiatives and n...

I've heard good things about IPTV if you want something better than the shit on sportsurge but don't want to pay (((espn))) or whoever for some turbo cucked nonsense that blocks everything local. Also apparently they include boxing/ufc PPVs, which is mostly what I'm interested in anyway.
However, every post about them is full of obvious bots so I have no idea if it's a real thing or just a scam.

Video that has the TL;DR for ADHD neeygas and nxggas familar with the scene:
https://img.ifunny.co/videos/68954362e17f88e4b0d5763a85fc5ade50fd691c508e954535d0ecad477580ae_1.mp4
(SKIP IF YOU AINT A NORMGROID WHO DONT KNOW WHAT RW TWITTER IS) BACKGROUND:
Ever since the publishing of Bronze Age Mindset in 2018, the dissident RW scene on X - the everything app has not been the same. This scene, initially centered around BAM author Bronze Age Pervert AKA Costin Alamariu, eventually grew into its own thing called frog twitter , with non groyper christians joining, the red scare girls/ artf@gs, right wingers who dont even know BAP, and a shiet ton of other people joining in. At this point, the space is defined less by barbarian LARPing, and moreso their (thinly veiled )neoconservatism, lawncucking (their highest aspirations is to be a richer normie), opposition to groypas led by Nick Fuentes, and thinly veiled simping for ugly foids. Famous moments (im too lazy to post screenshots0 include their members getting followed and RTed by the richest man on earth (elon), the haitian cat thing (yep, came from here), JD vance and several US politicians following their members, getting some of their members interviewed on FOX (faux) news, and some other shiet im too lazy to bring up
some holesum drama from frog twitter

Some background on BAP and frog twitter for the uninitiated (scroll down on the kiwiSISSY thread for info on frog twitter)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronze_Age_Pervert
With that out of the way, its time to actually get into what you clicked for
Around 2022, there was this anon, by the name of skyros achilles. Skyros Achilles was your average bronze age LARPer: skinny fat YT or jew who thought he was Achilles cuz he called Blks noons (I cant use the n word cuz NIGvann gets offended due to his African heritage) on twitter (not to our face of course!) and talked like mofuggin sephiroth or som shiet. One day, our hero recieved a calling that has occured in every single of his ARYAN WARRIOR ancestors. That calling, was of course, to mate with a fair aryan shieldmaiden and make BEAUTIFUL YT chillun. But, you ask, how would our faustian hero get his gall, his bonnie, his yang, his soulmate, on the MOST EVIL, DEPRAVE, MISOGNYISTIC, AND RAYCIS PART OF x - the everything app? Well, you see, BAP, being the juden he is, couldnt deny his true nature, and wherever he was, he must pimp. Hence, frog twitter i mean x - the everything app was flooded with e girls, and they just be lettin anybody in . if you don believe me, lemme introduce you to annie skywalker
Annie Skywalker is an Irish onlyfans whore that got in cuz being a prostie is bronze age mindset or som (not makin this up its unironically what BAP says). Id waste some time describing her, but I guess her actions / these screenshots would do a far superior job
So yeah, this nxgga achilles was tryna court an literal onlyfans whore that not only sold pictures of her gussy for the price of a cheeseburger, had s-x with a shiet ton of men, engaged in a poly relationship, coal burner, but also was a baby mama/ single mother ( for all the unkultured YTs that dont know hood kulture). Their relationship began as something was entirely confined to them on the internet, but like romeo and juliet (i dunno what happened there i don read das ghetto 💅), sh!t started leaking to the rest of frog X- the everything app.
Of course, people would eventually start to get hold of knowledge of this relationship, and it eventually began to split RW twitter, with the underclass of (INSECURE and brown coded) literal who anons opposing this, and the upper and more famous anons, BAP included, start encouraging skyros to CONQUER this shield maiden. How can you call yourself a real aryan man if your girl hasnt recieved 5000 miles of peepee, and decided to choose YOU of all the people shes been with! Theres also this dude who allegedly did the most to persuade skyros to wife dis YT hoe up, and his name is bane of mars (
), but he denies it to this day, and even claims he has a trash can with baby sneed's (i shall elaborate on this later) name on it“When I was held to a martial standard I turned out to be very average and that made me uncomfortable” pic.twitter.com/6DA3mBqdld
— Bane of Mars (@_putonthemask_) February 4, 2025
So, did Skyros heed these RESENTFUL chud's advice, and give up on trying to court this fair maiden? Well rumor has he was considering it, but one day, the POWER and BLOOD of the YAMNAYA COURSED thru achilles veins LIKE A RIVER, and he decided hed follow in what his noble ancestors would (totally) do, and doubled down and SENT THIS BICH A DIAMOND RING IN ORDER TO MARRY HER!
- keep in note for the later section, i think this is annie buying skyros a ring in exchange for his (idk yt nonsense)
AND NOT JUS ANY BLING, BUT A RANG (AHHH LAWD DEM RANGZ) WITH ICE ON IT WORTH 5K (THAS LIKE 50 AIR JORDANS BRU). AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF, HE SENT IT TO THE WRONG HOOD HOE TOO
Also heres some screenshots of people making fun of achilles for NOT only courtin the town bike, but also tryna send the BICH a diamond ring (by my baby mamas life dat shie gotta be expensive like u gotta rob a walmart or som to get dat). Nxggas even made entire accounts to make fun of the whole sh!tshow
(in case the text is too hard to make out from the bottom, its skyros achilles sayin " by ideology is hot people supremacy" and him getting QRTed by a nxgga sayin "my ideology is yo fiances pussiyeh "

AND THE BEST PART HASNT EVEN BEEN REVEALED YET (well, if you had LITERACY and ccould put two and two together, i thikn youd know)
Our internet detectives (neighbors that have enough patience to go thru like 5 minutes of scrolling) find, a rather disturbing and peculiar specimen...
ITS A FCKIN MULATTO BABY!!!!!!! ANNIE SKYWALKER IS NOT JUS A SINGLE MOTHER, BUT DESPITE LIVIN IN THE WHITEST COUNTRY ON THE PLANET, SHE SOMEHOW FCKED A BLACK GUY AND PRODUCED A LIL NIGGRESS SHANIQUA!
!!!!!! Eventually, people took to calling the half YT half neeyga baby baby sneed, and referring to it as he for some reason
Sh!t EXPLODED! Nxggas were fckin everywhere and eruptin like lil vesuvius over dis shiet. It was like 1000 suns laughing all at once. I cannot describe the absolute pandemonium and sh!tshow that occured after, only try to show you
Of course, achilles and aurora tried to claim damage control and claim it was actually an "aryan" castizo baby from a LATINX instead of neeyga, but lbh no one believin that
more fun
(come on bro das jus too dirty)https://x.com/BAPHOUSETV/status/1669813057856339968/video/1 - dirtiest one by FAR! They literally ressurect her dad using AI just to hoe shame her! BRVTAL! NO COMING BACK FROM THIS
Our aryan hero,Achilles, for the KRIME of eros and heterosexuality, had no choice but to leave the internet entirely (although the hood says this is a farce, check around for more details) after all this i showed you, and rougly I cant blame him. Rumours persist that that crakkka accelerated the mayocide and decided to kill himself (and for that too), but sadly, this is not the case. He is still the butt of all cuck jokes on frog twitter and allegedly got doxxed but i cant find info on dat rn.
So youre wondering, what happened to the characters in this story after this fiasco? Well
BAP is still there and he done more gas butt YT shie like encourage two gay followers to go into gay porn, as well some other stuff im too lazy to talk about. Bane of Mars is posting half naked jap foids on his TL. Annie skywalker got harassed to a point where even id kill myself, but being the wh0re she is, she couldnt RESIST the attention and still posts on the same twitter account where alll that transpired. She also beefed with nick fuentes too, for some reason i wont mention here. BAPhouseTVs owner would never be revealed, and once the fiasco subsided, he eventually fell into inactivity.
But, as of writing this, my hood has FOUND new details after asking around, and we have UNCOMFIRMED NEWS (benefits of following me BTW, make sure to do it on twitter and here i wanna boost my aura/ klout) that skyros achilles is not only STILL ALIVE, but also alive and better than EVER! even moreso than his opps! In fact, its probable that you probably seen skyros achilles and didnt recognize it, before you even saw this post (assuming you have an X- the everything app account). Its even likely that his own opps has even unknowingly boosted his account and landed him into the likes of te richest and most powerful (heck im guilty asf cuz i followed dis neeygas new acc lul.)
Thats because Skyros Achilles runs one of the biggest accounts on this website, Anc_Aesthetica, which has been boosted AND FOLLOWED by the likes of none other than Elon Musk.
How did my hood originally know this? I dont fckin know, but I do know I came to realize they were tellin the truth!
Well for one, if you notice, anc aesthetica was started in february 2022, same time achilles deactivated his twitter account and left.
If you still dont believe this is enough proof (understandable), ask him about baby sneed and his aryan shieldmaiden,
Your answer will be revealed in the swiftness he blocks ye
Omg achilles? Skyros achilles!
— PoopNeighborHitler69studiosThereWilBeGroypage👹😈🇭🇹 (@BIBOCalypseNOW) January 16, 2025
Baby sneed needs you to be the man thay stepped up!
So yeah thats the story of perhaps the greatest cuck on right wing X- the everything app, eventually came to realize that trying to wife up the former poly onlyfans hooker with a bodycount rivaling that of the actual achilles that was a single mother of a mulatto monstrosity was simply an SILLY mistake - the struggle section of the "struggle, grind, shine" era of any bronze age gangsta. And how he decided to not let that (until now (me n my hood got something blanned for this neeyga who think he can get off THAT easy)) stop him from getting thousands in goybux from none other than the richest man in the world, who also included him into his network, which now controls the government of the worlds most powerful army.
Unrelated but crazy how we have a cuck occupied government (Elon got cucked by a literal trainee (manning), Trump married a nude model, Achilles ( i already elaborated here), jd vance's (whos a weirdo) wife was fcked or dare i say JEETED by vivek (neighbor from morrowind lo), etc.)

A leaked draft of the list of plans by the European Commission shows that the Commission wants to follow a new approach to introduce "hate crime" as a felony in the entire EU. There have been several attempts since 2021.
Already during her first term as Commission president, Ursula von der Leyen wanted to declare "hate crime" a EU felony.
The magazine Euractiv recently published a draft of the list of all initiatives that the European Commission wants to implement this year. On Tuesday, February 11th, the final list is to be presented by Ursula von der Leyen to the members of the European Parliament. The European Commission president wants to tackle another initiative so that "hate speech" is recognized as a felony in all of the European Union.
Already in 2021, during her first term as Commission president, the Commission presented a corresponding legal initiative. The parliament agreed to the initiative, but there was no agreement in the Council of the European Union. Because "hate crime" can only be introduced as a EU-wide felony if all member states agree. In November 2023, members of the European Parliament demanded again that the initiative shall be followed on.
Crimes need to meet certain requirements in order to be considered "EU crimes". These requirements are stipulated in Article 83 Paragraph 1 on the work of the European Union. The crimes must be cross-border, the acts must be categorized as "particularly severe crime", and there must not be an alternative to the expansion of EU crime status to get the crime under control. So far, among EU felonies are human trafficking, terrorism, and money laundering. "Hate speech" allegedly is cross-border not only because of the Internet, but also because media such as newspapers are able to distribute content far and wide.
So far, at the level of the European Union, discrimination on the basis of skin color, religion, or s*x is punishable. The European Commission argues that the introduction of a felony "hate crime" is necessary because hate not only harms the individual victim, but "also society at large", as the legal initiative from 2021 says. "Hate undermines the very foundations of our society. It weakens mutual understanding and respect for diversity on which pluralistic and democratic societies are built", it continues.
When "hate crime" is fundamentally recognized as a felony in the European Union, then, in a second step, the Commission together with the Parliament and the Council of the European Union, in the scope of the regular legislative procedure, can set concrete characteristics of the felony "hate crime". Also, the three institutions can then decree minimum regulations that are then valid in all member states.
Currently, in EU law, there is no definition of hate speech and hate crime. On the definition of the term "hate speech", the Commission refers to a recommendation by the European Council from 1997, in which it states that hate speech is the incitement of hate because of certain protected characteristics like religion or s*x. The term "hate crime" is being defined in a recommendation by the European Commission in 2015 as "advocacy, promotion or incitement, in any form, of the denigration, hatred or vilification of a person or group of persons." A "negative stereotyping" is also seen as "hate crime". In that, it is about characteristics like an alleged social gender identity, age, origin, s*x, or religion.
Based on these two documents, the Commission speaks of "hate crime" being any crime with a motive based on prejudices. Specifically, the initiative from 2021 says: "For both hate speech and hate crime, it is the bias motivation that triggers the perpetrator's action." Furthermore: "These are 'identity' or 'message' acts, as the messages conveyed - notably that the targeted victims do not belong to that society - are addressed not only to the victim, but also to their community or group."
Accordingly, the motivation of the perpetrator is crucial for the felony. In addition, the text says that "hate crime" and hate speech "undermine the foundations of the EU". The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) decided in 2006 that it could be necessary for "democratic societies to sanction or even prevent all forms of expression which spread, incite, promote or justify hatred based on intolerance".
The right to freedom of speech does not protect against law enforcement reactions to hate speech, the ECtHR says. The legal initiative from 2021 also refers to the concept of a "ladder of harm" or "pyramid of hate", according to which hate not only leads to discrimination or insults, but also "bias motivated violence" like r*pe, murder, or genocide. As an example, they refer to a study according to which hate-filled tweets lead to an increase of hate crime in a city.

PLAGIARISM DISCLAIMER:
Greetings Dramatards
If any of these exact storybeats ever sound familiar, it's because I plagiarized most/all of it from a longform Afrikaans Calvinist article (which in turn probably plagiarized it from some more famous English sources), which my father had excitedly desired me to read during the 2024 December holidays. The vast majority of the article revolved around a Calvinist introspection about self-deceit, and how History and politics is shaped by how people record and perceive historic events both during and after key happenings. Very long and boring.
But the incredible and exciting part my father wanted to showcase me, was a chapter regarding the infamous Tulip Mania period, which occurred during 1634-1637 in Holland, during the zenith of Dutch colonial and economic power, when the Dutch was by far the most prosperous nation on earth, when taken into account their meagre population and size, due to the astronomical wealth generated by the Dutch, due to the infamous VOC (Vereenigde Oostindische Compagnie) or Dutch East India Company, perhaps one of the wealthiest private enterprises in all of human history.
During the period, one of history's 1st and most well documented Speculative Bubbles occurred, when seemingly the entire Dutch nation state was beset by a fervent mania from all sectors of society. Rich merchants and poor farmers would buy the new fad, Tulips imported from Turkey & China, at increasingly outrageous sums of money, for the sake of selling these (at the time) rare imported plants, which the Dutch didn't know how to perfectly cultivate, so it wasn't a gaurantee that you could just make more of them once you bought rare tulips for literal prince's ransoms!
These tulips, which at 1st were bought, because they were the showing-off fad for the turbo wealthy new Merchant-class of the state, were then bought for the sake of selling at ever increasingly higher prices, which in turn made the tulip a fad for wealth accruement instead! Eventually, inevitably, as we can all predict, prices eventually went down, which burst the speculative bubble, and the prices went into freefall, and fortunes were wiped out of existence, as these once prince's ransom priced foreign flowers, became......priced at the rate of regular funny and unusual foreign flowers!
SHORT STORY INTRO:
When Tulips arrived in Holland, it was said that the !dutch completely lost their senses. There was an infamous story about a sailor whom had been at sea long enough, to have been completely kept in the dark about Tulip Mania in Holland, and having been out of touch with the latest political/social news of his home country, as many VOC voyages could take literally as much 2 full years to complete! Of course as the Silk sailing routes were established, these timeframes reduced to less than 1 year - but still long enough to be out of tune with the country's latest excapades!
Anyways, the late 1630s a dutch sailor, whom had just disembarked, had went to the owner of the goods his vessel had transported, to notify him his shit had just arrived. Gratified by this good news, the merchant rewarded the sailor with a breakfast. On the large table on which the merchant had given the sailor his meal, at one end there had laid what looked like a red onion
The sailor took the onion for seasoning on his bread, and GTFO'd out of the merchant's storehouse to go and find a private spot to go eat his meal in peace. Never in his wildest imagination would he think this act would cause him such grievous misery. Just as the sailor had left, the merchant discovered to his horror, that an invaluable
imported Augustus tulip bulb was MISSING
which at the height of Tulip Mania was worth a whole commercial farm on its own.
The merchant and staff ripped the storehouse asunder in their angst, looking for the missing invaluable Augustus Tulip. Eventually someone remembered the sailor being the most recent stranger in the storehouse, and the goon squad proceeded rake apart the entire port looking for him
They found the hapless, luckless, unfortunate & clueless sailor having already eaten the fricking tulip bulb, and proceeded to try and strangle him alive
He was imprisoned for his crime!
CHARLES MACKAY:
This infamous story, about the insanity of the Tulip Mania, comes from a very famous economic writer & journ*list Charles Mackay (27 March 1814 – 24 December 1889). In his magnum opus, the book called "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" he wrote about what he termed "Crowd Psychology" & "National Delusions".
The book consists of a series of short stories about a myriad of events in the past, but the topics are all united in the mass delusion or hysteria of crowds/nation-states, or mass adoption of fads and hysteria by groups of people. The stories covered things like the large scale witch-burnings across europe, the fad and obsession with the fake science of alchemy (turning iron into gold) and hysteria about haunted buildings.
!bookworms The book had become immediately successful, and continued to garner infamy well beyond Charles Mackay's death - he had a strong grasp of engaging storytelling. But the parts of "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" which really REALLY
propelled Charles Mackay into infamy, was his chapters about Speculative Bubbles - specifically his 3 chapters of infamous about Speculative Bubbles known before his time.
Each of the 3 chapters revolved around a particulour economic disaster, brought about by lunatics overinvesting or speculating upon companies/stocks/products well WELL beyond their realistically graded values. They were the South Sea Company bubble of 1711–1720, the Mississippi Company bubble of 1719–1720, and of course the famous Dutch tulip mania!
THREE CHAPTERS ECONOMISTS LOOK UP TO:
While the rest of the book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" would be largely forgotten as interesting and entertaining reads for a book from 1840, the 3 chapters on Speculative Bubbles would reach such incredible infamy in the Economists world, that a very large amount of people would reference it historically.
Present-day writers on economics, such as Michael Lewis and Andrew Tobias, lauded the three chapters on economic bubbles.
====(from the WashingtonPost article)
C.S. Lewis once asked himself if anyone could actually write a story as magical as that title. To me, Charles Mackay's "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" possesses an almost equally evocative power. First published in 1841 and expanded in 1852, it chronicles some of the many varieties of human folly, obsession and self-delusion. Here, in fact, are the deep taproots of the credulity and lemming-like behavior that characterize today's social media.
More recently, economic writers such as Andrew Tobias and Michael Lewis have championed the book. Overall, one might characterize Mackay's work as popular history, conveyed in a tone of ironic, head-shaking amusement.
====(end quote)
Many people unironically considered Tulip Mania as a Classic for Economic History for the longest period. The book is so famous that non-historian economist-Journ*lists cite Mackay whenever there is a recent fraud or Speculative Bubble implosion occurring; like the recent Bitcoin and Shitcoin and NFT
Bubble implosion which has dominated headlines in economic forums and newsfeeds, when FTX caused a chain-reaction of wiping out untold millions and billions of wealth out of existence.

TULIP MANIA AND CALVINIST PROPAGANDA:
The only problem for this internationally critically acclaimed book about Tulip Mania? It's complete absolute total bullshit, or in the very least heavy propaganda! The short story about the Dutch Sailor mistaking the tulip bulb for an onion? Complete fabrication .
The issue for Mackay wasn't that he was a deliberate liar, but that he had taken his primary sources, which were overwhelmingly Dutch Calvinist propaganda leaflets and articles, at absolute face value. Many good historians go to great lengths to decipher primary sources, written during contemporary times about events, to determine how bias from the authors could fabricate or contaminate their view of events. Mackay literally straight up consumed Dutch Calvinist Propaganda leaflets as they were!
PROPAGANDA LEAFLETS:
So what exactly was the deal with Calvinists? What the heck do they have to do with anything? Well Calvinists were relatively conservative for their contemporary timeframe, and the feared the new era of Holland having accrued so much unthinkable wealth, more than any nation-state before had ever known to have accumulated so fast and in such an incredible short timespan.
They feared and believed that all of this wealth of the Merchant-class was rotting and decaying society. They feared that this new trend of consumerism and speculation on stocks was leading to societal downfall. Dutch society had underwent intense transformation in the past 100 years in that moment in time.
So they had created stories with near-comical carrecatures of people, where the common theme was greed and avarice being the downfall of everyone involved.
FICTION VS BORING REALITY:
According to Charles Mackay, which took the Calvinist Propaganda at face value, the Tulip Mania was so extreme during 1637, that all levels of Dutch society went completely batshit. Other sectors of the economy went neglected, and so much was invested into Tulip Mania, it was as if Holland was expending during a World War time economy! Everybody from nobles, to wealthy merchants, to poor farmhands, were borrowing recklessly to get in upon this wealth craze.
According to Mackay those left holding the bag were either bankrupt, or even fricking worse - in deep debt!
In the book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds" you can read of people losing their minds and selling their most valuable possessions to buy or speculate on a few Tulip bulbs. Mackay gives the example, in his story covering Tulipmania, of one particularly unhinged Dutchman, who exchanges 12 acres of land for ONE fricking Augustus Tulip Bulb!
The reality is much more dull - in fact the scale of the Tulip Mania, may have been completely fricking overblown due to Mackay's book, which has been in the public international consciousness for the past 200 years. No record of even ONE bankruptcy could even be confirmed by Dutch historians as due to Tulipmania, during the period of 1634-1637.

Here's where the myth comes into play. According to this narrative, everyone from the wealthiest merchants to the poorest chimney sweeps jumped into the tulip fray, buying bulbs at high prices and selling them for even more. Companies formed just to deal with the tulip trade, which reached a fever pitch in late 1636. But by February 1637, the bottom fell out of the market. More and more people defaulted on their agreement to buy the tulips at the prices they'd promised, and the traders who had already made their payments were left in debt or bankrupted.
In fact, "There weren't that many people involved and the economic repercussions were pretty minor," Goldgar says. "I couldn't find anybody that went bankrupt. If there had been really a wholesale destruction of the economy as the myth suggests, that would've been a much harder thing to face."
That's not to say that everything about the story is wrong; merchants really did engage in a frantic tulip trade, and they paid incredibly high prices for some bulbs. And when a number of buyers announced they couldn't pay the high price previously agreed upon, the market did fall apart and cause a small crisis—but only because it undermined social expectations.
====(end quote)
In fact only a small fraction of Dutch society even partook in the Tulipmania, and usually only the upper-middle rich Merchant classes. Less than 5% of the whole population even bought a tulip at any point, and when the bubble burst, those whom lost money were those least vulnerable from bankruptcy. While losing half your wealth is a serious hit, these Dutch merchants were so filthy stinking rich by the mid 1640s, they literally didn't care!
Additionally, the reality was that most dutch Merchant-class bought tulips as a show of wealth, it was a demonstration of their cosmopolitan and urbane manner to show off amongst all of their straggy rich merchant friends. The majority of Tulip buyers and speculators never even expected to make money, it was like wealthy influencers and Hollyweird freaks buying branded crap like Nike shoes or Rolex watches to show off their wealth.
IN FACT, there exists something called the law of Veblen Goods, where things become sought after BECAUSE they are morbidly expensive, because they are literal "show-off" goods! (Rolexes, Ferari, ect)
Which is what some economists believe is likely what actually happened, rather than a true Speculative Bubble like Bitcoin and Shitcoin. Or even the other 2 Speculative Bubbles which Mackay included in his book, which were much closer in reality to nation wealth destroying events.
This doesn't mean that Tulipmania DIDN'T happen, or that many peeps lost wealth, but it has been vastly overstated, in large part BECAUSE of Mackay's book.
THE REAL DRAMA REGARDING CHARLES MACKAY!
Now the 2nd point of drama for Charles Mackay in recent times is the fact that despite his incredible infamy about his internationally successful book regarding mass mania and hysteria and fad following by crowds, and especially his famous chapters regarding Speculative insanity, was that he HIMSELF was likely a turbo midwit fool who fell head over heels for a Speculative Bubble in his own contemporary times, during which he lived!!!
Mackay was a popular economic newspaper columnist in 1841 when he wrote the book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds". And what's incredible is that not even one mention is made about what is likely THE most economically destructive Speculative Bubble in all of recorded human history so far, and which vastly outstrips the scale of even large bubbles like Shitcoin and even frauds like Enron and the Theranos fraud, which eviscerated billions and billions of wealth into nothingness.
Mackay our expert in Speculative Bubbles not only lived through the 1840s Britain Railway Mania, which destroyed wealth on an unfathomable scale, but never so much as makes a fricking peep about them!
1840s RAILWAY MANIA:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Railway_Mania
By the time the 1840s had arrived, Bongland was at the height of its colonial power, and industrialization. And Bongland was leading European states in terms of industrializing its entire society and economy with new fabulous technologies. The most significant was the Railway and Train.
A transport technology which completely terraformed society to the same degree as radio or the internet had done during their respective timeframes.
People understood how significant the wide adoption of Railroads were becoming, and the technological improvements to the steam engine continued every consecutive year. Entrepreneurs flocked to Railroad and Transport companies, as they correctly predicted that Railways would quite literally trailblaze
the economy of britain and her colonies. The issue, is that they vastly, VASTLY overpredicted the actual economic output and influence railways & trains would have upon Bongland's economy, well beyond human reason.
====(from Focus article)
By the mid-1840s, the economy was improving and the manufacturing industries were once again growing. The Bank of England cut interest rates, making government bonds less attractive investments, and existing railway companies' shares began to boom as they moved ever-increasing amounts of cargo and people, making people willing to invest in new railways.
And at its peak, railway investment—which lagged a few years behind planning applications—surged to 7% of GDP, representing half of total investment in the economy at the time.
====(end quote)
But even MORE INSANE about our boi Mackay wasn't just that he DIDN'T foresee the Speculative Bubble of the 1840s Railway Mania, despite his book on Mass Hysterias, or that he cheerled the overspending on Speculating on Railroad bonds for his fricking readers whom trusted him implicitly in his articles for the Glasgow Argus, BECAUSE of his fame for the book of the book "Extraordinary Popular Delusions and the Madness of Crowds", instead THIS MOTHERLOVER was even on the fringes of the extreme end in terms of being a nutjob Speculator for the Railroad bond market!!!!!!!!
The short story was that Britain is a relatively small island(s) and there just wasn't enough villages, cities, ports or key-points to connect via railway to make economic return upon such gratuitous overinvestment. These railroad companies would build connections between big cities and tiny Bongistan villages of like 50 people, which as you can well imagine, didn't exactly accrue trade to the scope of London to Paris.........
Just like modern China now finding out that they have likely overspent on infrastructure, where tiny villages have been connected to Beijing via 6-lane superhighways. When inevitably the grotesque overspending did not yield appropriate economic activity return from laying Railways across every square-meter of the entire fricking British Isles, the usual Bubble tanking underwent the usual market bottom falling routine.
An unlike the Tulip Mania, the Railroad mania DID influence the entirety of Bonland's economy and social fabric. Rich AND poor people alike invested recklessly, many upon fricking Mackay's advice, and many faced bankruptcy, and worse massive debt
IN FACT, just to demonstrate how badly people got burned from the 1847 Railroad Mania crash, there was something called Company Scrips. Where for example you paid only 5$ for a Scrip in a 100$ share, and if the 100$ share doubled its value into 200$, you just made 100$ from 5 bucks Unfortunately for all the hapless midwits who bought into this terrible scheme, Scrips worked fricking BOTH ways. Many peeps put themselves into absurd debt for just fricking 5 bucks!
And uh that's about it for this incredible story, hopefully this story was as interesting for you guys as well!
